She is an expert on travel, personal finance (as a former CFP), and lifestyle design and has coined the term financially sustainable travel.

Ensure that when flying with a lap child you are not seated in the emergency exit rows
Pack lots of snacks when travelling with kids (granola bars, crackers
Pack lots of extra diapers
Every child is different when travelling but bring iPads, headphones, chargers, portable battery chargers etc
Ensure that you have clear rules and expectations prior, during the flight and at the destination
Make the kids part of the trip planning
